Hello…my name is Charles Bihum and I have been working as a Licensed Professional Counselor for 25+ years in Colorado. It isn’t always easy to reach out for help and I applaud your efforts in doing so. Most of us are good at surviving but there is a big difference between surviving and thriving. We often encounter blocks in our life, sometimes it may be fear or perhaps mistrust because of the hurt we have experienced in the past.

Talking with a counselor that we have developed a trusting relationship with can help us see those blocks more easily and then begin the process of change. Counseling may seem difficult at first but once we begin to find possible solutions and put them into practice, it actually becomes rewarding and hopeful again. This perceptual shift alone can help us to feel better. Life is meant to be enjoyed and not endured.

Each of us has the strength inside to build the life we deserve and want.

You have already demonstrated that by exploring possibilities and reaching for help.

My counseling begins from a solution focused base…identifying the problems that keep us stuck in merely surviving and then developing ways to begin to thrive and grow again. I have experience in helping the LGBTQ community because I’m a part of that group. With my 25+ years of counseling I have specialized in helping many people from all walks of life dealing with depression, and anxiety as well as relationship and career issues.

I believe joy and hopefulness is inside all of us, sometimes we just need help in finding it.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
